Leonor Antunes: the pliable plane The central Nave of the CAPC musée d'art contemporain de Bordeaux is the emblematic space of its patrimonial building and has been the hosting place of memorable exhibitions which have accompanied the history of contemporary art. The CAPC musée has commissioned Leonor Antunes a series of sculptural installations to be displayed in the Nave of the museum, with the aim of shedding a new light on this magnificent space. As Antunes says, she wishes to "shift the space of the museum, from one impressive dimension to a more human scale, allowing the visitors to embody themselves in her installation thanks to a closer relation with the works." For this exhibition, borrowing its title from Anni Albers's 1957 essay "The Pliable Plane," the artist will occupy the 1,500 square meters of the floor of the Nave and display around, and above, this monumental space a series...of large scale works, some of them inspired by Anni Albers's fabric designs, others informed with Lina Bo Bardi's architectural work. Leonor Antunes's works will enter a dialogue with the building, echoing both the commercial history of this 19th century construction and the cultural legacy of modernism.
Après l'avoir présenté au Perez Art Museum de Miami, en 2014, et au New Museum de New York l'été dernier, l'artiste, établie à Berlin, exposera son travail au CAPC musée.
